Castle Vista

Plein-air painting at 6 a.m. on a misty French morning from atop a private castle. The first known painting to be created in this location. It was chilly, but the breeze was like music so high up - only birdsong could be heard from nearby trees. Painted on location during my tenure as founding editor of Plein Air Magazine. Sold

Wonderful water effects and again the feel of France, I can almost smell the air!

I love this one, especially the way the light hits the tress in the middle distance. I generally prefer your plein air pieces.

Artist Reply: Thanks Dee. It was a challenge painting atop the castle so early with the breezes going...perhaps my brush was moving a bit more efficiently;)
